I'm pretty damn excited y'all, they officially offered it to us today, we're signing tomorrow. Sure, I shared a townhouse for 4 years in college. I've lived with roommates, I've rented rooms. For the last year and a half I've had to swallow my pride and have been living in my childhood bedroom along with my girlfriend. Today we finally were offered a beautiful two floor, two bedroom duplex. It isn't huge at 1000 sq feet, but it has an enormous private basement, washer & dryer hookups. It isn't 5 star living, and we only have maybe half the furniture we need, but it's going to be ours.
I think I'm most excited for my girlfriend, who has had to live as basically a guest in the house I grew up in, I've tried very hard to make things ours and not mine, but I'm sure it's hard moving into someone else's space and trying to make part of it your own.
Anyway, what should I expect ERA? Anything I should go out of my way to avoid? Knowing we won't have the place 100% furnished day one, what should we prioritize?
